Im so glad you started this and thanks. Since I am the one that posted this below I figured I would re drop it here with the update from my member.
Ok you guys, we have a new dangling thread to pull with this Buffalo plane crash. I wasn't even aware of this when it actually occurred and we were digging into it back then. Just learned of it in the last couple days.
I posted the manifest on my site other day and this is what one of my members had to say about it.
"Weird…Ruth Harel Katz was a coworker of mine on this flight, yet isn’t listed."
We talked a bit about it and then she came up with this, so we know the lady was clearly on there. If you noticed in the link they give the woman just a casual nod and the rest goes on about the guy with some detail.

Then we have the pic related with just a mere nod she was on it, but wasn't part of the memorial either because they knew nothing of her.
I asked my member what she knew of the woman and this is what she had to say:
"I worked for a local community bank as a branch manager. Ruth worked in the commercial loan department. I think she did the loan docs…can’t really remember. I knew her from my dealing with the loan department. We weren’t chummy where I knew her life story. It was a business relationship.. I think at the time, I was so shocked that I didn’t notice the manifests. Now being able to see a lot of things so clearly, I find it very odd."
I know we have kind of moved away from the plane a bit now, but I really think this is something that should catch our attention and question just whats going on here. Could use a little of the infamous autistic help here guys.
UPDATE FROM THE MEMBER:
Glad…maybe they can find more info. When she died, she worked at Provident Bancorp 400 Rella Blvd Montebello NY in the commercial loan department. None of the people on the list of AIG employees are familiar to me. I did not attend any memorial service for her or the others. Whatever else you guys need, I will try to help the best I can!!!
